SolarWinds Free IP SLA Monitor

SolarWinds Free IP SLA Monitor is a handy tool for network pros like you. Even the best of us can miss a few spots when managing our networks. Sure, you've got control over your devices, but those users are always discovering hidden traffic issues. Ever wondered how remote sites chat with each other? Or if web traffic flows smoothly between places like San Francisco and Sao Paulo? Well, that’s where Cisco's IP SLA comes into play, and with SolarWinds' free IP SLA Monitor, you'll be in total control.

What is Cisco IP SLA?

Cisco created the IP SLA technology as part of their IOS software. It helps you check the service levels of various network-based applications and services. This technology measures the round trip time (RTT) between devices, giving you a clearer picture of your network's performance. Sure, setting up IP SLA commands can be tough at times, but don’t worry—SolarWinds IP SLA Monitor takes care of that for you!

User-Friendly Dashboard

The SolarWinds Free IP SLA Monitor is a compact application that enables IP SLA on Cisco routers and switches. It not only configures path-specific operation details but also shows real-time performance info on an easy-to-read dashboard. With its intuitive interface, monitoring common operations like UDP echo, ICMP path echo (ping), TCP connect, DNS resolution, and HTTP becomes a breeze.

Integrate with Orion NPM

And guess what? You can bring your IP SLA monitors into Orion Network Performance Monitor (NPM). This gives you an even better view of your network’s health! With Orion NPM, you can track trends in your IP SLA data, set up powerful alerts, and monitor performance between devices all over your network. Plus, it’s super easy to create and export a Universal Device Poller (UnDP) within the IP SLA Monitor, which can be used directly in Orion NPM for even more insights.
